Cartography of world order resilience. The central panel shows the distorted maps of the fragile states index (FSI, top) vs. the political damage index (PDI, middle) and economic damage index (EDI, bottom), as defined in the text. Cartograms are built according to Gastner and Newman (33). In the left and right panels, we show the values of the damage index with respect to economic and political relationships, separately, in response to country-based disruptions (left) and treat-based disruptions (right): values range from 0 to 1, and we refer to the text for further details.
